Tillamook® and Tefi Pessoa are Serving Realness in New York City and Freezers Everywhere

Tillamook and media personality Tefi Pessoa are decoding the freezer aisle and giving away free Tillamook Ice Cream for a year.

TILLAMOOK, Ore., July 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- A new bombshell has entered the villa freezer aisle: not all frozen treats are the same. That's why Tillamook and Tefi Pessoa are teaming up to cool down the people of New York City with FREE Tillamook Ice Cream* at The Real Scoop Newsstand, which is popping up at Astor Place in the East Village until Saturday, July 25, at 7 p.m.

"With me, what you see is what you get — but that's not always the case in the freezer aisle," said Tefi Pessoa. "When Tillamook shared that nearly half of Americans have unintentionally bought a frozen dairy dessert thinking it was real ice cream, I just knew I had to get the word out. I'm used to keeping it real when it comes to relationships and pop culture, so why not ice cream?"

Watch Tefi break down the freezer aisle on Instagram — and she brought company. Stefan Ng, Kaitlyn Lavery, Natasha Martinez and Jess Lucero are also reporting the facts.

And because everyone, everywhere deserves REAL ice cream, Tillamook is giving away the chance to win free, incredibly creamy ice cream for a year to lucky fans** at tillamook.com/the-real-scoop starting July 23^rd, where you'll find tips on navigating ice cream cartons and other Real Scoop knowledge.

The Real Scoop Newsstand also invites visitors to enter a specially designed podcast studio for real-time recording of your own "real scoop." Who knows, maybe you'll be the topic of the next Tefi Talks.
